Rodney Johnson jumped into the deep end on production with his start at Tube Creative, an independent production studio in Atlanta, which gave him his 10,000 of hours of experience and then some. Since then he's only added to his resumé, working on productions in the ad world, for music videos, and beyond.

We are beyond excited to welcome our World Famous Celebrity Guest Justin Johnson who is best known by his stage name Alyssa Edwards. Justin is not only a friend but family, who we love dearly and are so happy to have him on the show to celebrate our 300th episode.We talk about his dance studio Beyond Belief Dance Company in Mesquite, TX where he is celebrating 20 years of being the Steven Spielberg of dance. He is creating powerful stories through his dances and his life is fulfilled when he watches his dancers perform on stage. He thanks his Earth Angel Michelle Sherrard who helped him get started with the studio. We get to know how Justin grew up in Mesquite with his 4 sisters, Mom, very strong Dad and his granny. Justin was a natural born leader but wanted nothing to do with football or baseball, whichwas very disappointing to his father. Justin believes that dance saved his life. When he was young he was too shy to talk to people but expressed himself through dance. Justin makes a passionate appeal that in our world today gay people shouldn't have to "COME OUT" anymore. Back when he did he had the full support of his granny who told him that when she looked into his eyes when he was born she would love him for the rest of her life and love who he loves. Justin does say that watching Philadelphia with Tom Hanks traumatized him at the time. For years he was the real life Hannah Montana of Mesquite because he didn't want anyone to know that he started doing drag, because he was afraid of being judged. We get to know all about how he got started in drag and how he was crowned Miss Texas, Miss USA and Miss America and Miss All American Goddess. He was the Vanessa Williams of drag after getting dethroned. The world famous Shangela was back up dancing for him at the time. He talks about how the "Rose Room" at the S4 club in Dallas was like a wonderland to him and that room changed his life. We find out how he chose Alyssa Edwards to be his stage name. We learn about the coolest surprise that MTV did for him later on in his career. We end part 1 with talking about Rodney Johnson from Rodney's Dancing Zone which was a shock for all of us.......Stay tuned to part 2 where we talk about Justin being on Ru Paul's Drag Race and much more.....You do not want to miss it. ......

Flags of Freedom Chairman Visits Wake Up Princeton Flags of Freedom Chairman Rodney Johnson visited with Paul Bomleny on Wake Up Princeton to discuss the landmark and it’s upcoming biggest fundraiser of the year.Instead of its annual “Rockin’ the Runway” event, the organization will be holding an online auction from October first through the fourth. Johnson says businesses throughout Princeton have donated items which you will be able to view and make bids on on the Flags of Freedom Facebook page.The four giant flags are located along Interstate 80 at Exit 56 on the north end of Princeton. The flags are a symbol to salute our military from the past, present and future.Fundraisers and donations are relied on heavily as no tax money is used for purchase or upkeep of the flags Each 30 x 60 foot flag costs $1,500 to buy and maintenance is not a small expense, especially now that additional repairs are necessary due to damage from the 110 mph winds Princeton received in August.Donations to Flags of Freedom can be made through the Starved Rock Country Community Foundation or by writing a check directly to Flags of Freedom.For more information on donating or about the Flags of Freedom in general, visit flagsoffreedomi80.org or the Flags of Freedom Facebook page.

The Lake Stickney John Doe has been a mystery since 1994 when his body was found underwater in Snohomish County. Authorities knew so little about him they couldn’t even be sure he was caucasian… and oddly enough his race would change several times throughout the years as authorities tried to ID him. DNA recently gave him his name back - it’s Rodney Johnson - but we still don't know how he ended up in that lake and who killed him? This is Washed Away. You'll also hear from Forensic Artist, Natalie Murry. Show notes can be found at washedawaypodcast.com. (Content Warning: Murder)

But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.  For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror.  For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like.  But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.

There's a story going around the internet. It's saying that China has secretly amassed thousands of TONS of gold. They're buying gold mines, gold exchanges, gold stocks and gold bullion for reasons that will be so detrimental to the Dollar, that it will literally destroy the dollar as the World Reserve Currency.In this program Bruce explores the validity of the story with economist Rodney Johnson, President of Dent Research. Together they explore why China would do something so detrimental to it's largest global customer. Could such a ploy actually help China collect on it's $1.3 trillion of US Debt, that it will probably never see repaid? Or are there other motivations at play?NOTE: Sound quality is compromised in this edition. Please accept our apologies.

Did you know Japan also had a Baby Boom? It just happened to be about 20 years ahead of us. Remember when Japan was supposedly going to be buying all of California in the late 1980's? What happened? Why did their economy retreat on the world stage? You've heard Bruce declare it before. DEMOGRAPHICS! Today, Japan produces 1.4 children for every couple. It's population is literally shrinking! In this episode Bruce takes you inside emptying villages in Japan and demonstrates the connection of economic slowdowns to slowdowns in good ole baby-making. He then raises the next logical question, "Isn't China next?" and asks how a Chinese slowdown will effect the global economy when it turns out not to be the big global engine we were all expecting.

Japan's pre-WW II Baby Boom was 20-plus years before the US's. Their bubble burst in the late 1980's. The Nikkei Index is has still only recovered to 10,000 from it's peak of 40,000 over 20 years ago. Japan's answer? Keep printing Yen and stimulating against all demographics, instead of de-leveraging and writing down debt! Does that sound anything like the U.S. Fed Reserve's actions today. Yet, there are major differences between our two countries as well. Get the whole story in this broadcast episode. Includes a very current interview with Rodney Johnson, president of H.S.

The Queenz Of Media are thrilled to welcome Film Maker Rob Williams the CEO of Guest House Films to their show on Monday June 29th at 12:30a.m.EST! Rob Williams is an award-winning screenwriter and filmmaker, and co-owner of Guest House Films. With an impressive four movies under his belt;Long-Term Relationship, Back Soon, 3-Day Weekend and Make the Yuletide Gay. Rob graduated from Texas Christian University with a BBA degree in Finance, and received an MBA in Marketing from the University of Texas. He then moved to Los Angeles, where he worked in public relations. Frustrated with the lack of creativity in the PR field, Rob began studying screenwriting at the Twin Bridges Screenwriting Salon, where he developed primarily “mainstream” scripts such as thrillers and horrors. But the script he received the greatest feedback on was the gay-themed romantic comedy, Long- Term Relationship. With the support of his long-time partner Rodney Johnson, Rob approached good friend and acclaimed actor Matthew Montgomery with the script. Matthew's immediate response was, “You need to make this film, and I need to star in it!” This quickly led to the creation of Guest House Films. The company started production on Long-Term Relationship in January 2006, and has made four films in less than three years, with Rob serving as writer, director and producer of all films. The movies have been screened at film festivals around the world, winning audience, jury and acting awards, and securing distribution deals in North America and foreign territories. Rob was named to Instinct Magazine's “Leading Men of 2008” for his many contributions to gay cinema.
